Abstract
Therapeutic issues have evolved in management of inflammatory bowel disease(IBD) and a new therapeutic target is the achievement of mucosal healing (MH). Indeed, this concept is associated with better long-term outcome in term of sustained clinical remission, a decrease in the need for hospitalizations and surgery and improvement quality of life. Several methods have been used to define and evaluate MH. Among them, histology and endoscopy are the main methods that are competed by imaging or biological methods which are subject of validation studies. We draft on the advantages and disadvantages of each technic to better define what MH is.
